However I left Bearwood long before I discovered this and so had to think of a new username. Purely as I'm of an age where the New Romantic era was part of my growing up this name shot in my head as a play on words. It has nothing to do with an affinity of Spandau Ballet, although I have to admit I had a girlfriend from Halesowen who was mad on them at the time, and we did see them together at the Odeon in 1983, so there is a little bit of a soft spot for the band.I don't think it's their best album, but still very listenable, but then again I enjoy everything they release. Give it a few more tries, as it's a grower!

Simples...
What do you think of the new album? I have to admit I'm not as keen as usual, but maybe need to play it a couple more times.
